While you were conducting the morning round in internal medicine department, one of the patients told you that the nurses are insensitive and irresponsible. You asked him for the reason. He said: “they are not good as doctors”. All doctors I’d seen here are sensitive and responsible.

Which of these is the most likely defense mechanism involved in this case?


A-Projection
B-Reaction formation
C-Regression
D-Repression
E-Splitting
